I just put my brother's RacingHart rims on for him on his 2000. Everything looks fine but when I took it out for a test drive and to get it ready for doing the re-torque... when I drive past walls I get a clicking/whistling sound bouncing back at me. It almost sounds like metal on metal. The sound is not very loud. He had these rims on his car last year and everything was fine... don't know what happened this year. He didn't have this sound with his previous stock 17"s on. I checked the lugs after a day of driving on it and they are all snug and as tight as can be. I need help... What could this be? His car looks nice but then sounds like crap when pulling up places. Thanks for help in advance.

Nothing????? (bump)

maybe try taking them off , and cleaning the threads a little, maybe the nuts cant get on as far as they need to be, or maybe just rotating the rims around could help

check for clearance on all points. hub, caliper, strut, inner fender cover. just double check to see if the tire/wheel isn't making contact with any of these parts. good luck...

sounds like possible bad bearings...after i put my racing harts on and dropped my car one bearing went and now my opposite is shot....i hear clicking whenever i turn the steering wheel or when i go over bumps...
